The Timika Airport passenger terminal was built by the local government to be completed by the end of the year




The Mozes Kilangin Airport Passenger Terminal Building in Timika, Papua which was built by the local government is targeted to be completed by the end of this year.

Mimika Deputy Regent Johannes Rettob in Timika, Saturday, said that the construction of the passenger terminal building for the south side of the Timika Airport, which is next to the passenger terminal building built by the Ministry of Transportation, is currently about 61.9 percent complete.

The building is almost exactly the same as the passenger terminal building built by the Ministry of Transportation, with a two-story construction with an area of 21,000 square meters.

"In accordance with the multi-year contract work, it should have been completed by the end of this year. However, there is still a shortage of funds for interior accessories work such as furniture, electrification and so on," he explained.

To complete the accessory work on the inside of the Timika Airport passenger terminal building which was built by the regional government, he said, a budget of around Rp45 billion is still needed.

Although the construction of the Timika Airport passenger terminal building by the Regional Government can be completed by the end of the year, the facility cannot be operated if it is not equipped with various supporting facilities on the inside, including display facilities for flight information systems.

John Rettob said that later the two passenger terminal buildings of the south side of Timika Airport, both built by the Ministry of Transportation and the Regional Government, will be connected to each other with a total area of 42,000 square meters, with a two-story construction.

With such an area of the Timika Airport passenger terminal, according to John, the Timika Airport terminal will later become the second largest in eastern Indonesia after the Sultan Hasanuddin Airport terminal in Makassar, South Sulawesi.

"If everything is completed, the Timika Airport terminal will be the second largest in eastern Indonesia," he explained.

Currently, the Mimika Transportation Service has even installed three Garbarata units in the passenger terminal building of the south side of the Timika Airport which was built by the Mimika Regional Government.

The plan is that the three Garbarata which are connected to the second floor will soon be used for departure and arrival of passengers at Timika Airport, which is currently still using the south side passenger terminal building built by the Ministry of Transportation.

"We hope that in June the second floor of the passenger terminal built by the Ministry of Transportation will be operated. Later passengers will enter the plane via Garbarata from the second floor of the passenger terminal built by the Regional Government. Currently the contractor is working on the corridor so that later passengers can use Garbarata from the second floor of the passenger terminal which built by the local government," explained John.
